Posted:8th Nov 2001wooh, it's all new and sparkly and just waiting for all us lovely staff kids to make it our own! *bounce* Non-Https Image Link hehehe. I think somebody should donate a bottle of champagne for us to spray everywhere. I have no staff moves to add at the moment, dammit ;-) Although I did re-learn how to do a backward walkover today. Not with a staff, that would be too hard right now. My plan is to keep working on acrobatic stuff and have backflips and hopefully maybe back somersaults down by the end of summer....gotta get those old bones of mine working again :-) Would it be a bad thing for me to buy a trampoline with my tax refund money? hmmmmm. Will I ever grow up?x

Posted:9th Nov 2001I couldn't find any champagne, but here's a bottle of NZ's finest White Cloud...(White Cloud is regularly on special for about $6.00 nz)We just have to drink it out of plastic cups or staright from the bottle, coz the glasses cost more than the wine...

Posted:11th Nov 2001Basically the joke is based on a linguistic difference around the fact that many people in america pronounce tomato differently to how we in Britian pronounce it. There's a line in a song that rhymes our pronounciation of tomato with potarto. Presumably because the songwriter lived next to a shop that sold cheap gin.Another good example of a linguistic difference would be:you say George W Bush - presidentWe'd say George W Bush - care in the community.
